In the treatment of amenorrhea, systemic treatment plays an important role. It includes active treatment of systemic diseases, improving the overall quality of the body, and then providing adequate nutrition to maintain standard weight. In cases of exercise-induced amenorrhea, it is appropriate to reduce the amount of exercise. For amenorrhea caused by stress and psychological reasons, patient psychological therapy should be conducted to eliminate mental tension and anxiety. If the amenorrhea is caused by pathological conditions like tumors or polycystic ovary syndrome, then etiological treatment should be given. Once the cause of the disease is identified, appropriate hormonal treatment should be provided to supplement insufficient hormones in the body and counteract excess, aiming to regulate and treat amenorrhea.

Can you get pregnant with menstrual disorder and amenorrhea?

When women experience menstrual disorders such as amenorrhea, most of them are unable to conceive. This is because the ovarian secretion of hormones is abnormal during this period, and there is an ovulation obstacle, usually resulting in the absence of eggs. Thus, sexual intercourse during this time generally does not lead to conception. However, a very small number of women may experience occasional ovulation during amenorrhea. If they have normal sexual relations without contraception during this time, conception could still occur. Nonetheless, many women have abnormal hormone levels during amenorrhea, so even if pregnancy occurs, the abnormal hormone levels in early pregnancy could lead to complications such as missed abortion and miscarriage. It is recommended that women who want to conceive should first undergo regular treatment to restore normal menstrual cycles and resume ovulation before actively trying to conceive.

Women generally experience menopause at what age?

The average age of menopause for women in our country is generally around 49 years old. Before menopause, some people may experience irregular periods for about two to three years, a period also known as the perimenopause. Some may have periods once every two or three months until they gradually cease, reaching menopause. Others might experience increased menstrual flow, prolonged periods, and shorter cycles. Thus, generally, women around 48 or 49 years of age, if experiencing irregular periods, should consider that they are nearing menopause and should pay attention to menopausal care. After menopause at the age of 49, some may experience symptoms of menopause. Therefore, the average age of menopause in our country is around 49 years old.

How to treat amenorrhea infertility?

Amenorrhea-induced infertility first requires identifying the underlying cause of the amenorrhea. If it is due to intrauterine adhesions, a hysteroscopic adhesion lysis can be performed. After surgery, promoting the development of the endometrium can normalize uterine lining growth and serve a therapeutic function. If the amenorrhea is caused by ovarian secretory dysfunction, adjusting ovarian function can help, as conditions like amenorrhea-galactorrhea syndrome and polycystic ovary syndrome are caused by amenorrhea and lead to infertility, in which case hormonal regulation can treat infertility. Amenorrhea caused by premature ovarian failure can pose significant treatment challenges if the deterioration is severe. Thus, determining the specific cause of amenorrhea is essential for targeted treatment.

What tests are required for amenorrhea?

Amenorrhea is one of the most common gynecological diseases, and it usually requires an ultrasound and a sex hormone panel test. Testing the sex hormone panel should be done by drawing blood on an empty stomach in the morning, three to five days after the onset of menstruation, for more accurate results. After identifying the cause, treatment should be targeted accordingly. There are many reasons for amenorrhea in women, such as poor lifestyle habits, excessive fasting for weight loss, malnutrition, and kidney deficiency, all of which can cause this condition. Amenorrhea can lead to disturbances in the ovulation cycle and, in severe cases, prevent the development of follicles, causing infertility in women.
